“In an incredible display of dedication over the weekend, [Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission biologist Adam Warwick] jumped into the Gulf of Mexico about 40 miles south of Tallahassee and saved a 375-pound black bear that was dazed and confused after being hit with a tranquilizer dart. Afraid the bear would drown, Warwick kept one arm underneath the animal, grabbed the scruff of his neck and dragged him to shore, where he was put in the bucket of a tractor and later released in Osceola National Forest.” [Tampa Tribune]
